A Baby Elephant Slips And Falls On His Back. Watch His Mother's Reaction

October 2, 2014

There is no greater love in elephant society than the maternal kind. It is one of the most touching aspects of elephant social customs. Mother and child remain in constant touch. If a calf strays too far from its mother, she will fetch it. The mother steers her calf by grasping its tail with her trunk, and the calf follows, holding its mother's tail. When the calf squeals in distress, its mother and others rush to its protection immediately. It is easy to see why the bond between mother and daughter lasts 50 years or more.
